Configure the hanging build event

You can change the criteria governing when a hanging build event is thrown.

Note, the hanging build criteria can be also be set for a specific job, when specifying a job's builder. Job-level criteria will override the global criteria described on this page (including disabling this event).

To edit the hanging build event settings:

Click the icon in the Bamboo header and choose Overview.

Click Build Monitoring (under 'Plans') in the left panel.

Click Edit and update the values for Build Time Multiplier and Log Quiet Time as required.

Click Save.

The check interval for hung builds

By default, Bamboo will check whether a hanging build event has been thrown every 60 seconds.

You can change this check interval by configuring the system property, bamboo.buildHangingMonitor.checkInterval. (This property is specified in seconds.)

Please read Starting Bamboo for instructions on how to configure the bamboo.buildHangingMonitor.checkInterval system property.
